a plausible prediction, unfortunately;

it looks like the orange man's boys are setting out some tar babies to see what they attract;
The USS Abraham Lincoln Aircraft Carrier has been moved to within 250 kilometers of Iran’s coastline and Hypersonic, anti-ship missiles — with NO DESTROYER ESCORTS to protect it. A SECOND Aircraft Carrier, the USS George H.W. Bush (our newest carrier) has now taken up a position even CLOSER to Iran’s coastline: 170 kilometers from Iran’s hypersonic anti-ship missiles. The George HW Bush is escorted by two (2) Destroyers.
I suspect the Iranians won’t take the bait. And even if they do, if Trump and the neocons think pair of aircraft carriers on the bottom of the Sea of Oman are going to whip Americans into a frenzy of support for Netanyahu’s war, I think they’ll be very surprised.
And it wouldn’t surprise me if all four ships have skeleton crews and no aircraft on them. This is exactly the sort of Very Clever Gambit that the eternal Smart Boys think is genius.
Saturday Deadline: US Orders Iran To Declare Hormuz Open, Toll-Free…Or Else
The US is back to setting deadlines, coupled with new military threats, apparently. Judging by this week, which marked a dangerous return to guns-a-blazing in the Persian Gulf, it seems Trump is ready to back these warnings with new bombing raids. The only question will be the extent to which the Islamic Republic escalates in return...........more............
david degerolamo says its time to concentrate;
What should we be concentrating on? I feel like I am back in 2009-2010 where Obama threw everything at the people to divide and divert us. He had the power, money and evil intent that destroyed our culture and nation. Today, Israel has replaced Obama’s Deep State.
With so many distractions, how do we prioritize a strategy that will be effective? Let’s look at a list of issues that are related:
- Release of the Epstein files.
- AIPAC control of Congress.
- Israeli military personal inside the Pentagon during the 12 day war.
- The impending energy crisis due to the war with Iran that cannot be resolved without a worldwide economic collapse.
- The Ukrainian war led by Zelensky: a Jewish leader who is not the legal President.
- The Charlie Kirk assassination.
- The Kennedys’ assassination.
- The attack on the USS Liberty.
- The October 7th Hamas attack and Gaza genocide.
- The US laws that put Israeli doctrines on US citizens: free speech restrictions and Israeli boycotts by US companies.
I stopped at ten but it seems clear who is directing the destruction of the United States. Who wants to speculate what the Jews are doing underground in New York?..........more...........
erdogan is a masterful turkish politician who knows how to weave a political event;
Personally, I believe Turkish President Recep Erdogan knew exactly what would happen when he gave all the NATO leaders a “Magnum” .357 handgun at the 2026 NATO Summit in Ankara, Turkey. What happened next is exactly the reason he did it.
President Trump brings Erdogan’s gift back to the White House, with a casual ‘cool gun’ nonchalant approach. Meanwhile, back in Europe, the apoplectic recipients, administrators’, various office bureaucracies and support staff that surround each NATO politician are physically and mentally stuck, not knowing what to do.............more...........
larry johnson brings us news from hormuz;
It has been a busy week with the US making a full-break with the Mou, and it centered on the language in paragraph five of the MoU:
Upon the signing of this MoU, the Islamic Republic of Iran will make arrangements using its best efforts for the safe passage of commercial vessels, with no charge for 60 days only, from the Persian Gulf to the Sea of Oman, and vice versa.
Did not say one thing about the US or Oman or any other country bordering the Persian Gulf… Only Iran. In accordance with this language Iran established the Persian Gulf Strait Authority (PGSA) protocols, which delineated how ships could pass safely thru the Strait. Instead of accepting this, the US engaged in a series of provocations designed to challenge Iran’s authority. On July 6–7, Iran struck at least three commercial vessels in/near the Strait of Hormuz (e.g., Marshall Islands-flagged M/T Al Rekayyat, Saudi M/T Wedyan, Liberian M/T Cyprus Prosperity) who tried to circumvent the PGSA protocols. The United States claimed this was a violation of the ceasefire — it was not — and proceeded to launch attacks on Iranian positions along the Strait of Hormuz. Iran responded by launching attacks on US targets in Kuwait and Bahrain.
The tit-for-tat exchange continued through Thursday, following Iran interdicting additional wayward ships and the US hitting targets in and around Bandar Abbas and Qemsh Island. There was no activity on Friday, but Trump issued an ultimatum to Iran: i.e., Declare the Strait of Hormuz open and stop using force against ships that violate Iran’s PGSA protocol. When I heard that I predicted that the US would attack within 24 hours… And that is what happened. Some more ships connected to Western interests tried to breach the Strait and Iran hit them. The US responded, once again, with strikes that reportedly included ATACM and HIMARS missiles............more...........
